Ensuring Global Access to Medicines and Vaccines for COVID-19

May 14, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Free

Are you concerned about COVID-19 and about access and affordability of the vaccines and treatments being developed?

Join Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), and Drugs for Neglected Diseases initiative (DNDi) for an online discussion on Thursday May 14 at 1 pm EST, for a deeper look at the need for a widely available COVID-19 vaccine and treatments. Our discussion will also focus on MSF’s work to ensure access and affordability are at the centre of public health research–in Canada and globally–as well as on DNDi’s proven success in providing an alternative non-profit model to develop drugs for the treatment of neglected diseases.
